I enjoy space opera satires of Fascism like Starship Troopers, 40K and Starcraft, but their satirical premise always has a key problem which undermines it:
The humans in these stories really ARE facing genocidal destruction by inhuman horrors /1

Fan art I produced some years ago for the Xeelee Sequence books by Stephen Baxter, some of my favorite space opera. It introduced me to a lot of mad Big Dumb Object ideas.
This artwork is based on the description of the powerful Xeelee species in his most recent trilogy. https

Alien of the Day
A lovely Selection from Masters of Orion 3!
These have inspired some of my own designs as far back as high school. Particularly love the gas-bag Ethearian... https://t.co/NKsYSQJXRI

@alexriesart You bet I’ll buy the book, also I hope you can use the alien race of the Birrin on some project one day. Maybe on a Subnautica-like game but mostly on land, it could be on water too since I recall the planet of the Birrin has great oceans.
